Tucker - destroyer of Mean Greens

While reading one of Mucho's recent threads, it made me realize that what this forum needs is a video.

So here's a video about Tucker, my Hippo Tang that was a zoanthid muncher. He needed to be extracted from my 280g reef, thus the video.

was it just me or was tucker acting kinda guilty. the naso had no prolems going in the trap. but tucker seem very nervous. like hew knew it was for him.

That is why it is called the Tucker Trapper.

Great vid and like all great reefers you spilled just enough water onto the floor.

melev · #11 08/02/2007, 11:51 AM

Yeah, getting the trap out was tough once full.

swannL11 · #12 08/03/2007, 03:55 PM

Great vid...

t11t5 · #13 08/03/2007, 05:21 PM

Maybe my blue tang is doing the same. I noticed a few zoas wont open much any more. I will keep an eye on him.

seapug · #14 08/03/2007, 06:10 PM

very funny. He knew he was the one you were after but couldn't resist that nori any longer...hehe..

customanimalart · #15 08/03/2007, 09:47 PM

That was hysterical. Eventually his curiosity got the best of him.

I like that trap. Very nice. I need a small one about 3x5x3.

Hint hint.

Fantastic video!!!! I think I was on edge more than you guys when he kept faking you out! Job well done!

clsund · #17 08/06/2007, 11:42 PM

BAAAHHHHHH!!!!!

Great Video Marc. We need more Vids!

customanimalart · #18 08/07/2007, 04:43 AM

When you tossed the bucket of water, my husband was oike "NO Way!" Then he realized what was going on.
Very comical video. Might have to put this in my faves! =D

MitchReef · #19 08/07/2007, 06:27 AM

Great job Melev...that was a class act....gotta love the bucket toss...I wish this place had something other than Smileys, because that deserves a few thumbs up!!!!

melev · #20 08/07/2007, 01:02 PM

Evan spent the entire day editing that video to create that comedic effect. He did a great job. I'm surprised he didn't add Dory eyes when the fish was airborne.

lfduty · #21 08/07/2007, 03:04 PM

Mitch you need smiley central

Lfduty - the Mean Greens look much nicer now, and have spread quietly over the LR. I'll add a new picture soon.

melev · #25 08/09/2007, 06:22 AM

As promised.
